Jeremiah 15:19-21
Legacy Standard Bible
Yahweh’s Answer
19 Therefore thus says Yahweh,
“(A)If you return, then I will cause you to return—
(B)Before Me you will stand;
And (C)if you extract the precious from the worthless,
You will become [a]My mouthpiece.
They for their part may turn to you,
But as for you, you must not turn to them.
20 Then I will (D)make you to this people
A fortified wall of bronze;
And they will fight against you,
But they will not prevail against you,
For (E)I am with you to save you
And deliver you,” declares Yahweh.
21 “So I will (F)deliver you from the hand of the evil ones,
And I will (G)redeem you from the [b]grasp of the ruthless ones.”

19 Therefore, thus says the Lord,
“(A)If you return, then I will restore you—
(B)Before Me you will stand;
And (C)if you extract the precious from the worthless,
You will become [a]My spokesman.
They for their part may turn to you,
But as for you, you must not turn to them.
20 “Then I will (D)make you to this people
A fortified wall of bronze;
And though they fight against you,
They will not prevail over you;

And deliver you,” declares the Lord.

And I will (G)redeem you from the [b]grasp of the violent.”

New International Version
19 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“If you repent, I will restore you
that you may serve(A) me;
if you utter worthy, not worthless, words,
you will be my spokesman.(B)
Let this people turn to you,
but you must not turn to them.
20 I will make you a wall(C) to this people,
a fortified wall of bronze;
they will fight against you
but will not overcome(D) you,
for I am with you
to rescue and save you,”(E)
declares the Lord.
21 “I will save(F) you from the hands of the wicked(G)
and deliver(H) you from the grasp of the cruel.”(I)
